Jack Abramoff was sentenced to 4 years in prison.

Lake County Sheriff Mark C. Curran Jr. sentenced himself to a week behind bars today because he believes it will make him a better cop and person. Awesome.

Spending time in Waukegan does not make you a better person. If only Rod Blagojevich would do the same to himself.

Not sure how that's related to the election, but that's still awesome and way more respectable than that douche in Arizona that some people like to hold up on a pillar.

'U.S.A.' chant is code to drown out protesters.

The dude in the "Iraq veterans win the war" with the You Can't Win an Occupation / John McCain Votes Against Veterans sign still got so much camera time.

 

Some of the screencaps of him are funny, as there's more typical Wall Street looking guys in front of him who seem to not care that he's there.

The shirt of the night was the "John McCain is my homeboy" shirt I saw a guy wearing during a cutaway in McCain's speech

If McCain is so good, why was he a prisoner of war? Why didn't he just blast out of that place, Rambo style? He doesn't sound too tough to me.

McCain seems to be closing the gap, and these are mostly preconvention polling results. It'll be interesting to see next week's numbers.

"The police said not to do anything! They deserved it." There, I posted that before the usual random spineless fuck did.

 

"After we've won, we're going to reach out our hand to any willing patriot, make this government start working for you again."

What happened to just plain American. Patriot my ass. Fuck you. Saying to the American public that you've been a colossal fuckup and begging for another chance won't cut it. It's no admission of guilt, it's an appeal of indescribably ballsy proportions.

Well, this was inevitable...

 

Ann and Nancy Wilson of Heart said Thursday night that Universal Music Publishing and Sony BMG have sent a cease and desist notice to the McCain-Palin campaign over their use of 'Barracuda.'

 

"We have asked the Republican campaign publicly not to use our music. We hope our wishes will be honored," the group said in a statement that said they "condemn" the use of the song at the Republican convention.

McCain should ado what they say-he's no Magic Man.

He keeps using Right Now when Van Halen keeps asking him over and over to stop.

I'm sure Sammy Hagar would approve of McCain using his song.

I wish I lived in Waukegan (the city, not the jail.)

Don't know. When they had the 2004 tour, they edited the video to include anti-Bush stuff. Now whatever the band is today is suing them to stop. I don't think Sammy has any say over it.

[Guest דניא&#15]

Waukegan is kind of a dump. You're probably thinking of Winnetka or Wilmette.

that's what I hate... being a POW used to be a disgrace, like you were so fucking stupid to get caught. Now this old dude and other dudes are talking this up like it makes you some nigga who can make decisions... fuck that shit I say.

 

John McCain is a fucking idiot...

 

O-BAM-A BOM-BA-YE-!

No, I was thinking of Waukegan. My Dad works at a company that has the majority of it's operations there. And I'd love to live even in the distant suburbs of a large city than on a fucking island of a mid-sized, mostly low income city like Vegas. So long as I'm close enough to a bus line that I can get a ride to the station and then take Metra into the city, I'm set.

 

This town offers nothing if you aren't a tourist. Locals can't really join in the fun because the prices are amped up to out of towners coming in to blow a fortune over two days, and most concerts and other fun things to do think we're not far away enough from either LA or Phoenix to do a show here.

 

I love the energy and electricity of a city. 1,000+ft architectural marvels, subways, museums and theatre and zoos and culture, that kind of stuff just turns me on. I'd live in NYC as I love genuine art deco from the 30s-40s as well, but the sheer size of the place is maybe too big. Our city is not really a city, it's basically a bunch of suburbs that serve as like the dumpy "do not enter, employees only" section of the Disneyland that is the Strip hotel corridor everybody comes to see.

Ironically I thought McCain perked up when the protester came out and he had to deviate from the teleprompter for once.

 

Lets face it, that man can't give a prepared speech for shit. Imagine him giving our state of the union addresses ... ugh.

I meant to post this yesterday, but when they were state by state "voting" or whatever its called for McCain to the the canidate the other night...who had the five votes for "other"

He wrote the lyrics, so he should have a say.

Apparently, Ron Paul really had around 15 votes (from several different states), but he only ended up getting credited with 5 (the Alaska ones I think) because some of his other votes weren't acknowledged. Romney was credited with 2 votes from Utah.

 

EDIT: Actually, after looking it up, Paul may have had 20-25 votes that went unrecognized.

Surprised that no one mentioned Obama on O'Reilly's show.

This should be chanted at all Obama rally's.

 

Only to be preceeded by someone on drum's slapping them then calling out: "THE PREZ IS HERE..."

I'm watching Biden right now speaking in PA and it's just unreal. Sarah Palin laughs at Obama and mocks him for being a community organizer and Biden is in PA going on a 5-minute diatribe about how great of a man McCain is. Unreal.

[At Home 0]

Huh?

[CubbyBr 0]

I'm talking about how hilarious it is that the republicans are just chewing up Obama and Biden is sitting there praising McCain for five minutes.
